Medical Schools and Tests

The Medical Schools Council can help guide you through almost anything you could need to know about medical schools. It’s a one stop shop for students and teachers alike.

Visit Medical Schools Council

There are different aptitude tests which you will need to take in order to get into medical school. At Nottingham, we use UCAT for our undergraduate courses and GAMSAT for Graduate Entry Medicine; but other universities may use the BMAT instead.
